Go to your local health food store and buy a bar or two of soap with jewelweed extract in them. Jewelweed is a natural repelant to the oils in poison oak/ivy, and will remove them from skin. I'm frightfully allergic to those plants, and the jewelweed soap is the best thing I've found to remove their oils. I've never tried it on fabric, but I'd advise you to wash your woolens in cold water to avoid felting.
